Re: Greek life good or bad?
Most of the Fraternities and Sororities in the US have Greek disignations like Alpha Kappa Psi, Gamma Phi Beta, etc. Our original poster has been asked to join a fraternity at whatever University or College he attends. Therefore, going Greek, would be to join a fraternity.

Hmm, well I do belong to Phi Alpha Theta, the history honor society-but it's acronym would be: phat-or fat!

Re: Greek life good or bad?
What a strange thread? Again shows how different the English language is from one side of the atlantic to the other.

In the UK, the word is spelt 'furore' and the 'e' at the end of the word is accentuated, [few-or-ay]. In the USA, the word is spelt 'furor' and is pronounced as it is seen [without the -ay].

Re: Greek life good or bad?
It means the same thing, though, doesn't it?
The furor of the howling wind.....................furore..............oh, that would be something to use in poetry, I never saw it spelt like that before. |

Re: Greek life good or bad?
I always thought fraternities and sororities were for "those football and cheerleader" types. I have since changed my mind. Go for it..........as people have said they CAN be a great social segue into college life.
